So glad I never listened to the outdated idea that training in the gym would change my body in a way that wouldn’t work for ballet

Every year I promise myself I won’t post anything cheesy about this day… and yet somehow it arrives and I can’t help but express how deeply grateful I feel.
I’ve dreamed of becoming a mother almost since the very moment I started taking ballet classes (swipe to the second photo and you’ll understand what I mean).
Today is a day to celebrate. Motherhood is such a privilege, overwhelming, humbling, vulnerable, demanding, joyful and tender… somehow all at once 🤍
Happy Mother’s Day to all the women who, like me, dreamed of this. To those planning for it. To the ones who have been trying and haven’t gotten there yet, don’t give up. To the mothers at heart, because motherhood exists in many forms.
And to my mom and my mother-in-law, two women I admire deeply 🤍

Last Jewels of the season last night…
trying to soak in every second of it.

• Staying hydrated
For some reason, I’m just not one of those people who naturally drink water throughout the day. I literally have to set reminders, otherwise I’d go with my day and turn into a raisin.
• Not comparing myself to others
Ballet (and life) are so different for each of us. Experiences, “success”, and highlights don’t look the same for everyone, they unfold in their own time for each of us. We all have something different and unique to offer to this art form.
• Taking a real day off when I truly need it, no guilt.
No Pilates, no stretching, no ballet class…nothing.
Just letting my body rest, enjoying a good meal, a little treat and whatever fills my cup.
What would be on your list?
@miamicityballet Pop-up is coming up

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
